Michael C. Hall is an accomplished stage actor, who has appeared in nearly a dozen major stage productions. He made his Broadway debut as the emcee in Cabaret, directed by Sam Mendes, for which Hall garnered much critical praise. Ken Mendlebaum of InTheater describes the actor as "simultaneously hunky and goofy, an overgrown baby, and no end of fun. In his Broadway debut and first musical lead, Hall plays with remarkable authority, and I'd say it's entirely possible that a star has been discovered here."

Michael C. Hall most recently starred as Billy Flynn in Chicago. Off-Broadway, Hall starred opposite Alec Baldwin and Angela Bassett in Macbeth, directed by George C. Wolfe and Cymbeline with Liev Schreiber for the New York Shakespeare Festival, Timon of Athens and Henry V at the Public Theater, The English Teachers for Manhattan Class Company, the Manhattan Theater Club's production of Corpus Christi, directed by Joe Mantello and with Brian Cox in Skylight at the Mark Taper Forum.
